Al, > Wise words...the GOP won't do that, unfortunately. The GOP is too concerned with image. They will never beat Obama at his own game. All they can do is wait until Obama's agenda collapses under its own weight. Tenchusatsu

"Conservatives" up in my area are busy deciding how to suck aquifers dry to sell to Las Vegas and S. Cal., but scientists tell them that these aquifers were created by glacier melt in the last Ice Age and do not naturally recharge. (As was the Great Salt Lake, by the way) WTF is "conservative" about that?

How Health Care Reform Commits Suicide Tip for Dems: If you don't want people to think that subsidized, voluntary end-of-of-life counseling sessions are the camel's nose of an attempt to cut costs by limiting end of life care, then don't put them in a bill the overarching, stated purpose of which is to cut health care costs! ... I mean, did that provision have to be in the bill? If it really was just an added "benefit" for patients that had nothing to do with cutting costs (which I don't believe for a minute), did it even belong in the bill? Isn't there some group of Congressional Democrats--let's call them "the leadership"--whose job it is to prevent their co-partisans from inserting into major legislation relatively minor provisions that will have the effect of sinking the whole package? ... slate.com Putting end of life counseling in there was politically stupid as Mickey Kaus points out. Unless of course its really meant to accomplish what opponents are saying. In which case, they won't take it out in order to get the bill passed. Lets watch and see if its taken out.
